About Vendor 

Learn more about this vendor for your event.

The Santa Connection's Santa Dave is a real natural white-full bearded, truly professional Santa Claus whose joy it is, is to bring the true spirit of Christmas and the Holidays to both the children and adults he visits year-round. Santa Dave has membership in the Worldwide Santa Claus Network, International Brotherhood of Real Bearded Santa's and The Clan Claus Society as well as a membership in Clausnet - bringing people together to build friendships that help spread happiness to the true believers of Santa Claus -- the child inside all of us. Each year Santa Dave completes a background check as required and the results are made available upon request. Santa Dave has received his Whooping Cough booster (TDAP) 2019 and his yearly flu shot will be in 10/2022, along the required 2 Moderna vaccine shots in the Spring of 2021, he has received his two Covid Booster shots and will receive the third in 10/2022 so will be ready to hold newborns and infants. *** From 2021 season going forward Santa Dave is offering both Virtual ZOOM Visits or Live Visitations to your home, school or business. PLEASE use discretion to the number of attendees and space available for safe interaction. Children are in awe to see Santa Claus and Santa Dave encourages adults to imagine being 6 years old; to experience the wonderment of Christmas as a child all over again even if it is for a short period of time. Enjoy the memorable and fun experience by having Santa Dave pose for photos (take as many as you like), distribute your gifts, lead a sing along and mingle and interact with children and adults. Having trained as a Storyteller, Santa Dave can have everyone entertained with a good hearty Christmas story. “Santa Dave has been the Santa at our community Christmas party for the past four years. The party is open to our entire building of 100 families and is also attended by numerous neighbors and kids enrolled in our after-school programs. We partner with a law firm who hosts this event, which is always a huge success. A key element to our success is the presence of Santa Dave as Santa. First off, he looks exactly like our image of Santa with his white hair and long beard and his smiling countenance. He is amazingly patient with everyone from crying infants to the long line of picture seeking parents and grandparents. He calms down the kids, jokes with the parents, and gets stodgy lawyers to laugh and engage. The kids in our building wait all year for this party and for Santa and Dave never disappoints. He truly cares about the people who live in our community and who sometimes have very little and have come to expect even less. Dave is unfailingly generous, kind, fun, calm, and authentic in his interactions with every participant at this event. Anyone engaging him to play Santa will be more than satisfied. He's great!” - C. W. Executive Director "We were so pleased with our Santa visit from Santa Dave! He was very patient with our 6 month old daughter and accommodated all of our family poses, including poses with the dog! We got some great pictures for our family Christmas card and memories to last a lifetime." K. Benoit

Christmas PartyReviewed on December 16, 2023From West Simsbury, CT

Santa Dave is 100% truly Santa! This is the 3rd year I've had Santa Dave visit my home daycare and I look forward to seeing him every time. He brings the magic the second he walks in the door, my kids talk about him all holiday season and love seeing the pictures we take. He has the best stories and is truly the best part of the holiday season. If you want to hire the real Santa, this is him!!

Christmas PartyReviewed on December 16, 2022From West Simsbury, CT

I run a home daycare and this is my second year hiring Santa Dave, I can't wait for next year!! He's the absolute best, the kids absolutely loved seeing him and ran home saying Santa was here! He really makes the magic alive and makes everyone so excited for Christmas. I can't recommend him enough, he's truly the perfect Santa.
